IA In reality going to Romo to explain why he
disobeyed Papal mandate sent to him more
than q year ago. Once In ten years every
Bishop Of the Roman Church is required to
present In person at Romc report OF
the condition Of his diocese. 1t Is not
time yet for Bishop LouGhlin to make
his decennial visit, but II was supposed that
his advancing years suggested the idea OF an
early visit to him. and that he also wanted to
be present at the Popes Jubilee, which will be
celebrated In tho fall. Certain gessipy stories,
however. alleges that his early visit is due to Q
perelnptory summons from Rome to explain
personally why no disobeyed the Papal COM
mand settling the once famous case OF Father
John %. Crimmins.
I Bishop Louahlin suspended Father Grim
nins seven years ago. Tho priest appealed
and carried his cause from ono church author
